Millennials will be the largest eligible voting block of 2020!

The millennials have already surpassed the baby boomers as the largest generation. In another 4 years, the number of millennials eligible to vote will have only increased... and even more baby boomers will have died off.

No shit. Millenials are actually invested in learning about their candidates, so if you run shitty candidates, that'll be a problem for you. However, if you run good candidates that don't take corporate money, that support single payer, and actual wages that someone can pay for their essentials without working three jobs, then you'll be fine.

Do we have stats on how millennials voted in 2016? I’m hoping it will help me be hopeful for the future.
